So, for the most part, adapting to weather or other environmental conditions can usually be done relatively quickly. After the tennis ball reforms into its original shape, the gas inside the ball pushes back up and causes the ball to bounce into the air. The thermocouple recorded the temperature. Tension loss is due to the reordering of molecular bonds to the lowest stress equilibrium available at any given moment. Results for Setup #2 ‐ Elongation, Tension and Stiffness vs Temperature. For instance, you can use old balls for the second round of the experiment compared to new balls. The result is more viscous behavior with chains slipping, sliding, and reorienting relative to each other. (Incorporation, 2011)In the late 1920s, tennis balls became pressurized. Most players focus on tension, but that is only useful in as much as it predicts stiffness, which is often the case for comparing an individual string at different tensions but not for comparing different strings to each other. 1b Heat after tensioning and stabilization. the serves comes in five main types of which includes; cannonball or flat serve, topspin-slice serve, slice serve, American twist serve and the topspin serve. Figure 8 Closeup of stiffness vs temperature for each nylon and polyester string. The ball will not bounce much in the winter, which means that the players will not be as active on the field as they are during the summer season. It is the other way around for polyester the 20 string loses more tension than the 40 string. I did notice a different in weight. Place the thermometer on the ball. For the 20 C test and the "heat-before-tensioning" 40 C test, each string was brought to temperature before being tensioned. First, watch the video. Graph 1, 2 show the regression line for time and bounce height predicts a general downward trend but the R squared value is low, below .17 in both cases. Stiffness decreases with an increase in temperature and increases with a decrease in temperature. Retrieved 8 24, 2012, from LIVESTRONG: http://www.livestrong.com/article/398740-temperatures-tennis-balls/, Incorporation, I. Repeat for each of the hot and cold balls and record the readings for each ball. As an experiment, you can try to heat a tennis ball and see how well it will bounce. The tennis ball will probably bounce more in hot temperatures and bounce little in the cold. Then the stretch continued at 100 mm/min up to 380 N. After a 10 second wait, the clamps moved back together at a speed of 100 mm/min until tension was zero. The air molecules inside the ball will also move around slowly and tend to have less energy when the ball has been cooled down, meaning that the ball will have a lower bounce when you drop it to the ground. (Sheehan, 2011)Its just like a trampoline: When one jumps on a trampoline, the material one the trampoline expands and stretches, and when it does, the trampoline is forced to come back up to its original state, causing one to bounce on the trampoline. The impact duration was between 65 and 71 ms. Tension is a component of stiffness. Then, drop the ball from a height of one meter. When a tennis ball hits the ground, the force presses against the ball, pushing the bottom surface of the ball in to the core and compressing the gas inside of it. All you need to do is roll a ball. Hypothesis: The normal tennis ball will bounce higher than the tennis ball that was placed in the freezer for some time as the air molecule inside are not affected but for the cool tennis ball its air is compressed affecting its bounce. Hot temperatures create more pressure whereas cold temperatures do not produce much pressure. A thermocouple inside the tube recorded the temperature. Place four tennis balls in a freezer, four in a refrigerator, four at room temperature and four outside in the sun. Strong chair (Incorporation, 2011)Also, the original flannel cloth was replaced by special melton cloth made specifically for the purpose and the stitching was replaced by rubber seams. A game played at higher temperatures will be much faster since the ball will rebound from contact with any surface better than at low temperatures. A good source of heat that can heat things evenly. This increased accessibility to insights both on and off the court will help tennis players everywhere. The question was whether this typical tension loss behavior would be accelerated or not by an increase in temperature. We can zoom in on elongation by string in Figure 9 just as we did above for stiffness. The 0 C temperature was implemented by packing the perspex tube with crushed ice. Natural gut string is generally more responsive to changes in temperature. When the ball is still very new, there is usually a lot of air inside it. The experiments If you are looking to add a bit of friendly sabotage to your tennis opponents game, consider popping a few of his tennis balls in the freezer beforehand. Table 1 shows the percentage spread from 0-40 C, from 0-20 C, and from 20-40 C. Because strings 8-15 did not have any data at 0 C, "NA" appears in those cells. Repeat steps 1-3 but keep the ball in a refrigerator. Some interesting results can be found in an analysis of the experiment results. (Borlings, 2011)The game is outdated and is not played anymore. The anatomy of a tennis ball features a hollow rubber-like core filled with gas. Analysis of the data will either conclude that the common practices of opening a new can balls often is necessary to keep a consistent bounce height, or show that it is unnecessary and balls out of cans previously opened bounce with the same height as newly opened cans. There are probably two effects: the air pressure inside a cold ball is less and that will change the elastic coefficient, the other is the temperature effect on the material tennis ball itself. The temperature of the ball influences its coefficient of restitution. Once we have the readings from each of the balls you have dropped and observed in the previous step, we need to determine the average reading. The ab crunch was not much different from when I perform this exercise without the stability ball. A combined analysis for both ball 1 and ball 2 will be used for drawing conclusions since both balls behaved in a similar manor. Average the results. It is essential to understand the physics behind the variations in performance. To measure the bounciness of a ball, you can try dropping it from a height onto a hard surface. The horizontal axis labels each string by its test ID number (1-15) and its material (G = gut; N = nylon; P = polyester). The stiffness tests closely approximated the expected result that stiffness would have an inverse relationship to increase in temperature. The strings were each given an Identification number from 1-15 (14 was omitted). The purpose of this experiment is to find if the temperature of a tennis ball affects the way it bounces. If the uniform temperature of a tennis ball is decreased, the balls bounce will be lower. (Incorporation, 2011) This method was used for a long time. Do not forget to note the temperature of each ball before bouncing it off the ground to ensure that you get the best kind of results. The balls need to have the right temperature and air pressure inside in order to work best. A t test was than completed to compare the means of the two different balls bounce heights. If a 82,37,and 70 degree tennis ball are dropped,then the 82 degree tennis ball will bounce the highest because the molecules in the 82 degree tennis ball will move faster. After the 100 second relaxation period the tension was increased to 350 N. Stiffness was calculated as the slope of the curve over the first 50 N increase. Once the arm has begun to accelerate towards the ball, the tricep brachii is then used to, The ball uses this kinetic energy to move up the usually 6 to 7 degree incline to the top of the playing field. That means theres more water in the air, causing it to be and feel denser. No conclusions can be drawn from this data because of such a high lack of fit. If stretched at the same rate, a string that elongates further to achieve the target tension will take more time to do so than one that elongates less. Figure 9 Elongation by temperature in setup #2. Analyze the data, and make a conclusion stating if the temperature of a tennis ball affects how high it bounces. In the heat, the molecules are more active, so the ball can bounce higher, and in the cold, the molecules are heavier and have less energy, creating a smaller bounce. Likewise, will a tennis racquet perform differently at different temperatures, or will the stringbed stiffness be affected if the racquet is strung at different temperatures? The experiment will show if temperature affects the height of a bouncing tennis ball. (Sheehan, 2011)On impact, the gas will be caused to move toward the ground. These acquired values show that the line is a good predictor of future points and where they will fall. As a result, a cold ball has a much lower bounce. You need to be able to move quickly and effectively to reach the ball quickly and hit it. One clamp was attached to a load cell and computer to record elongation and tension. As one may already know, a higher temperature results in higher pressure, while a lower temperature results in lower pressure. What is happening? (Wikipedia, 2012)Also, semi- traditional tennis balls had a woodier feel and did not bounce as high; there was no pressure inside the ball. The pressure of the gas inside of the tennis ball is what determines how high the ball will bounce. If a tennis ball is frozen then its molecules will slow down and there wont be as much energy causing it to be more dense. Percentages of the tennis balls bounce. (Harriman, 2012). The 40 C tests were performed in two ways: first by heating the string to 40 C with a heat gun just prior to tensioning the string to 28 kg (62 lb) and then letting the string stabilize at constant elongation for 100 seconds. This showed that the non-championship ball was more consistent than the championship ball in the test. This reordering occurs during both the stretching and post-stretching phases. This scientific mystery can be demonstrated at home or school with a simple experiment. The part of a paintball gun that is used to shoot the ball accurately is the barrel. Setup #2 Stiffness, Elongation, and Tension vs Temperature. Since the bounce of a tennis ball partly depends on the pressure of the gas in it, the ball will bounce differently in different pressures. But if the tennis ball is heated it will have the opposite affect. Here is another table that shows the exact height in which the ball bounced. Analysis The heated tennis balls bounced the highest because as the temperature rose, the molecules expanded and exerted more pressure when the ball bounced The experiment illustrated the perfect gas law, because it showed that when the temperature rose, so did the pressure The data for each set of tennis balls had a range of 15 . The first setup (Figure 1) was used to measure tension vs time for strings with different temperature exposure histories. Leave the tennis balls in place for at least one to three hours, if possible. Figure 12 Closeup of tension loss vs temperature for each nylon and polyester string. Therefore, gas molecules can easily expand or contract. Many athletes use basketballs, soccer balls, and volley balls to play their sports. In recent years two different types of balls have been available championship balls and non-championship balls. Stiffness is the most important property of strings. That is, it is more susceptible to wear in unfavorable conditions. Controlled variables: Refrigerator/freezer stopsworking, there is no heat source, room temperature is extremely hot, video camera has bad graphics and one cannot clearly see things recorded, height from which the ball is dropped. However, at 63, The learning quesiton that I chose required me to perform atleast one exercise for each major muscle group on a stability ball. It is normally instigated by pitching the ball into the air and thumping it into the diagonally opposite service box exclusive of touching the net. Required fields are marked *. That is precisely what happened in the experiment. Then they would be dropped from a table, and the height would be measured. Why don't you do an experiment. Knowing this can help your scores. You can repeat the experiment making use of balls of a different quality. Equilibrium occurs when all molecular bond attractions are greater than the tension trying to tear them apart. Six tennis balls i was just worried even if they are correct or not. I chose to perform the ab crunch for my abs. Ice chest with ice So, if you are stringing just before a match, string lower for cold and higher for hot on-court temperatures. This is an eventuality that many players should take into account. Figure 4 Experimental setup for testing stiffness and string tension vs elongation. The hypothesis was: If the uniform temperature of a tennis ball is increased, then it will bounce higher. Place the ball at the 100-inch mark and drop it. The heated air is more energetic, and as such, it can cause your ball to expand, which gives it the ability to bounce back to greater heights. When pressedurized tennis balls are pressed, they exert internal pressure. Figure 1 Experimental setup for measuring tension loss vs time for strings with different temperature exposure histories. Tension and temperature drop was then recorded until 100 seconds. Repeat this this step three times and record all of the results. Record it. Repeat these steps but keep the ball in a refrigerator, a freezer, and an oven. The Erector Spinae muscle causes trunk extension to allow the abdominals to fully flex the trunk and generate the force that is then transferred to the upper body. For the sake of our experiment today, you will need to have a concrete floor or other hard surfaces that will be used to perform the bouncing test. The bladders are usually made of rubber or rubber like things. Gather 15 to 20 tennis balls and a measuring tape. Table 1 Percentage change in stiffness between temperature spans. Easy Experiment. Do you know how a golf ball works? String materials vary in terms of their durability, given extreme weather conditions. As the molecules expand, their energy increases as they bounce around more erratically. Figure 3 shows a typical result for this process. The string ends extended past the end of the tube and were clamped. Figure 12 zooms in on tension loss behavior for each nylon and polyester string. While high temperature and high humidity are technically different measures, they often occur together. Leave 2 out for 10 mins so they can come to room temperature. America seemed very separated from the game until a sweep of popularity in California in 1989. 4.Tennis ball D was placed in the preheated oven for 90 minutes. On the other hand, a temperature decrease causes the gas molecules to contract and move around more sluggishly. The question also required me to determ wheter or not I could use the same weight as I normally do while using the stability ball? Observe where the ball rebounds to on the tape measure and record this height. Place the video camera on a level that will be able to clearly record the experiment, whilst a person sits beside the tape measurer When a tennis ball hits the ground, an opposite and equal force, pushes the bottom surface of the ball in and compresses the gas inside its core. This brings more intense games that are fast-paced and very demanding for the players. Conclusion. The Effect of Temperature, Time, and Humidity on the Bounce of Tennis Balls. Time was analyzed next in Table 3, 4. When the first two examples were done, I noticed that there was a slight trend between the ending pressures as the temperatures decreased. Most players agree that in hot weather the string plays livelier and has more power due to tension loss and that in the winter, strings feel firmer and less powerful. That is the important take away. You will also have a more comfortable time working out the heights to which the balls can rebound, and as such, your experiment will go on more easily. During the course of playing tennis, especially in competition settings, players often painstakingly consider all factors that have a shot at affecting their game. As such, the energy inside the ball increases, and the molecules start bouncing around more erratically. Bocce ball, which was first documented in the year 5200 B.C., is a sport that was first popularized during the roman empire. A tennis ball is designed as a hollow rubber core with pressurized air. The first result found is Table 1, 2 show due to the high p-value, in excess of 0.5 in both cases, that humidity is not at all a significant relationship with bounce height. It is the relaxation that occurs both during and after the stretch that is significant. Ball History. Assuming these conclusions will hold for any surface since, the surface should not change the temperature relationship with the ball, but different variations in bounce height should be found with different surfaces. Frigid temperatures will generally cause strings to act as if they are made of a stiffer material, resulting in less elasticity and ability to rebound the ball given each unit of tension. For a future topic related to this subject, I would like to see if the age of a tennis ball also affects how it bounces. Does it matter when the string is exposed to a temperature extreme before, during, or after tensioning? Strings were stretched until they reached a tension of 28 kg (about 62 lb). As such, tension loss is just a partial and often misleading participant in determining string stiffness the most important parameter in string performance. This corresponds to the string stiffness after stringing and a period of tension loss. Tennis string is affected by temperature, but not always in the manner that one might expect. Required fields are marked *. Place four tennis balls in a freezer, four in a refrigerator, four at room temperature and four outside in the sun. The hypothesis was supported. Temperature Cubic ANOVA, Table 14: Ball 2 vs. This isnt something that you can control. Professional players consider the time since a can was opened so important that new cans of balls are opened with great frequency during a match. A quadratic regression was next tried as illustrated in Table 7, 8. co2 is carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide is an expanding gas. You should find that the heated balls bounce the highest, followed by the room temperature balls, then the refrigerated balls, with the frozen tennis balls bouncing the least. Temperature has a significant positive relationship with the bounce height of tennis balls. Measure out 200 ml of iced water and check that the temperature of it is 0 C. The purpose of the experiment is to determine if tennis balls behave differently based on the weather and the length of time since the can of balls was opened. Ball 1 had a sample standard deviation of 3.312 while ball 2 was 3.177. When a tennis balls temperature changes, the gas core goes through a reaction. From that data, the lengthwise stiffness of each string was calculated. As such, the heated ball will tend to have a higher bounce than the colder ball. The difference in stiffness between temperatures for each string was greater for the nylon strings. NOTE: IEEE WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR CITATIONS, SUBMITTED TO SABIO ACADEMY TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SR 90 JUNIOR RESEARCH COURSE AT SABIO ACADEMY. Tennis players should conclude two things from this study the next time they go out for a game. This experiment was performed to determine the effect of temperature on the stiffness, elongation, tension loss, and maintenance of tennis strings. During fast volley bouts your muscles often react. The hypothesis was confirmed as the room. This is because the gas molecules inside the ball expand . Photos of the investigation being conducted The tennis ball will probably bounce more in hot temperatures and bounce little in the cold. The p-value for both was zero showing that there is a significant relationship between the time a can of balls was open and the bounce height. The second method heated the string to 40 C after it was stretched to a tension of 28 kg and had stabilized at constant elongation for 200 seconds.

It is the only attempt where a player takes his time to position up, instead of reacting to an opponents shot. Tennis balls in the 1400s were quite similar to the first tennis balls, butthey were stuffed with chalk, sand, sawdust, or earth. Secondly, testing our experiment with two different balls of the same type to ensure that they reflect the same amount of result. Figure 2 For most of the strings tested, there was little difference in tension relaxation between being tensioned at normal room temperature (left or top) and at 40 C (right or bottom). In warm temperatures, the opposite is true. When a tennis balls temperature changes, the balls gas-filled core undergoes an interesting reaction. By not rejecting H0 means the two different balls would be considered equal. With an increase in the temperature, the gas molecules within the tennis ball start to expand. I thank Dr. Choi for teaching me how to do this assignment and my parents for buying tennis balls for me. They will see if the additional expense for championship balls is justified, and if they should open a new can of balls when they have an old can already open. It is also an ideal learning opportunity that can show us how the effects of temperature cause variations in the bouncing ability of a tennis ball. Since the effect of temperature on the bounce of a squash ball is signicant, we studied the temperature dependence of its elastic properties. Players will be able to use the conclusions in many ways. Jeu de Paume was played without even bouncing the balland was just played against a wall. Easy Experiment. Generally, temperature affects a ball's resiliency, the spin and the density of the air through which the ball travels. Do variations in temperature exposure affect tension loss in these materials differently? This scientific mystery can be demonstrated at home or school with a simple experiment. Upon conclusion, I am to determine why resistance was limited during the activity. Does the Temperature of a Basketball Affect the Bounce of the Ball? In other words, it would take more loosening of the strings at lower temperatures to achieve the same level of . While we think primarily about the effect of temperature on rackets and their strings, theres one thing that is also significantly affected by high temperatures: the balls themselves. When a ball drops gravity pulls it down to the ground. Retrieved 8 24, 2012, from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_ball, Your email address will not be published. In doing this, high percentages of the efforts are normally exerted at the upper extremity of the body, while the rest at the lower extremity of the body. With such a low R squared value, the regression line does not predict many of the points and can not be considered a good fit to the relationship. Researchers Crawford Lindsley and Rod Cross performed an in-depth study exploring the effect of temperature on string tension and stiffness. Experiment. A normal tennis ball has a rubber core occupied with a gas that is composed of unorganized molecules or atoms that move around freely. For this reason, the players will have a better experience which is usually caused by the plenty of pressure inside the tennis ball. . (Incorporation, 2011)In1972,tennis balls became yellow. In the study, they considered strings of different materials under different temperatures. The player may also feel stiffer on a cold day. Sheet3. Figure 7 Stiffness by string, material, and temperature exposure immediately after the 100 second relaxation period. The greatest effect observed in this experiment was that exposing a string to high temperatures after post-tensioning stabilization/relaxation has occurred (as in leaving the racquet in the car during hot weather) produces the greatest decrease in tension.
